Hi, I installed about one month ago SCCM 2007 SP2 R3 on a W2K8R2 virtual machine, but I realized only few days ago that the origin of all my problems is due to the SMSEXEC process that goes in fault randomly. Looking for the log of this event I just found an Event Viewer entry (see below) but nothing else (no dump, no error entry on smsexec.log). Does anybody can help me? Thank you Pierluigi Event Viewer Entry: 17 Feb 2010:08:43 Faulting application name: smsexec.exe, version: 4.0.6487.2000, time stamp: 0x4ab33f1d Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x4a5bdb3b Exception code: 0xc0000374 Fault offset: 0x000cdcbb Faulting process id: 0x160 Faulting application start time: 0x01cbce6ff250218e Faulting application path: E:\SCCM\bin\i386\smsexec.exe Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ntdll.dll Report Id: a918d9af-3a69-11e0-bb62-00505688144c SMSEXEC.LOG - Log extraction for the time of Event SMS_NETWORK_DISCOVERY started, ThreadMain() thread ID = 4172. $$<SMS_EXECUTIVE><Thu Feb 17 08:42:00.271 2011 W.

Bad news. Same behavior. I saw on link http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrgeneral/thread/784bbf68-6212-41b3-a85e-85177898f48a? that they refer to a possible antivirus problem, but in my case has not yet been installed. I'm really worried at this point.

Thanks' for the quick answer. Unfortunately I don't found any crashdump, but following the thread of the link that you have suggested, I ran the command "c:\> sfc /scannow" and I found a corrupted file (see extracted log below). So after that this has been repaired I made reboot and now I'm testing the system to see what happen.

Thank you for your help. I agree with you this sound as a more complex problem. Just last detail, in the mean time I found the Applic. crash repository but is not clear for me how to read the minidumps, are there some tools available? Pierluigi
